Product Description

This resource presents 51 English words that come from Old Norse, the language spoken by the Vikings. A few of the words will be familiar but other words will surprise you -- berserk and saga and also crawl and steak all come from Old Norse! This is a great resource to use when teaching about the Vikings or about word origins.

Two versions of the words are included in this resource:

* In the first version, each word is shown 1 per page, in 8.5” x 11” poster size

* In the second version, 4 flashcard/task card-sized words are shown per page

Please open the preview to see the complete list of words in this resource.

For both versions, the words are provided in both color and black-and-white styles. A list of all the words on one page is included for easy reference. Background information and 4 suggestions for using the words are included in the teacher notes. A page listing categories for a word sort activity is also provided. A guide to pronouncing the Old Norse words is included as well.

Whether you display the words on a bulletin board or distribute sets of the task card/flashcard-sized words to students for a word work activity, this resource will expand their knowledge of the English language.
